Transportation: Today, the great deal on my new apartment has turned into a nightmare....

Today, the great deal on my new apartment has turned into a nightmare. I keep hearing extremely weird sounds almost every night, and when I tried taking pics of the place today, my camera's face recognition feature kept activating, but only in my bedroom. I'm scared shitless. FML

Today, I moved into my brand new apartment, only to discover that there is an annoying, constant hum coming from the ceiling above my bed. FML

Today, my new neighbor informed me with great relish that the house I have just bought is haunted because 30 years ago a man shot himself in the kitchen. I'm now paying a huge mortgage on a house I'm frightened to be alone in. FML

Who goes there?

Today, I live in a studio and I can hear really weird noises coming from my neighbours, my walls, my floor and even inside, without knowing what did fall/scratch/move. I seriously wonder if someone lives hidden in the walls. I don't know if I should call the cops, a psychiatrist or an exorcist. FML

Freaked out

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2014 but it's good stuff - United States - Hightstown

Today, after moving into my new house, I woke up to strange sounds coming from the kitchen. I panicked and started sobbing, convinced it was either a robbery or a home invasion. Turned out it was just my cat. FML

Today, I moved into my new apartment. My neighbor is apparently crazy and thinks I'm trying to 'steal' her husband. She watches me and is super paranoid. I have a two year lease. FML

Today, I went downstairs a little after midnight to grab a snack, and in the dark hallway, I clearly saw a small child walk into the kitchen. I was freaked out, but I followed him in. There was nobody in the room. I'm now too scared to sleep, and am seriously considering moving house. FML

Today, I was walking to the kitchen in the dark. Something caught my eye and I turned to see a man standing in the corner, clear as day. I jumped and closed my eyes for a split second. When I opened them, he was nowhere to be seen. I'm now terrified to live in my own home. FML

Today, less than a day after my cranky downstairs neighbor passed away, I woke up to banging sounds against his apartment ceiling, like the ones he used to make whenever I walked around during the night. I'm shitting myself in fear. FML

Today, the fire alarm keeps going off at my apartment. Not only is the noise ear-piercingly loud enough to wake the entire neighbourhood, there's also a big flashing red light in case the deafening sound isn't enough. This is my day off. It's going on all day. FML

Today, I finally managed to sleep, after two days of being kept awake by the miniature floodlights my neighbors have installed to scare off burglars. Only a couple of hours into my sleep, I woke up to the sound of their car being broken into. FML

It's amazing how many people in the world are superstitious. Damn, not the kind of comments I was expecting.

I would never be able to be a paranormal investigator... I'd walk into a place, shit would get creepy, and I'd just be like "Nope." "Hey that door just opened on it's own!" - "Nope." "What is that thing in the window?" - "Nope." "Why is our furniture on the ceiling?" - "Nope." "Look! It's a single box that wasn't there in the pictures of the attic before we moved in, and is sitting there ominously in the middle of the empty attic!" - "Nope." "Hey look! A book that's wrapped in a garbage bag and barbed wire and looks like it's made from skin and has 'DON'T READ' written in it in blood!" - "Nope." Never underestimate the protection offered by the word "nope".

I love how so many people on this comment section are assuming that it's a ghost and giving advice. Yes, a strange noise and buggy software means that spirits somehow exist and interact with people by creeping them out for the lulz. Makes total sense. OP, try not to freak out, it's just your house being annoying.

It's possible OP is just paranoid. But people are given intuition & can often tell when something is 'not quite right' or feel a presence. “There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.”-Shakespeare

Sense deprivation can trigger hallucinations. I think listening to music with sound canceling headphones might be a better idea.

There are 3 types of hauntings; poltergeists, ghosts & spirits. poltergeists are angry and mean you harm, they feel you're invading a place that belongs to them & they want you out. ghosts are lost souls who dont know how to move on or have unfinished business on this plane, be careful as their reactions can be unpredictable. spirits are souls who have accepted their mortality, moved on, but like to come back to this plane to visit & recall their living memories, they're harmless & will often help you if you ask. find a medium or a person in tune with the spirit realm to come and see who you have with you and go from there. :) xo

Wow. That is really quite creepy. But there could just be something innocuous in that room confusing the sensor on your camera. These technologies aren't foolproof.
